Description

The remember command is used to save a variable for later use. This is useful for storing values that you want to reference in subsequent commands or steps, especially for things that are dynamic or change frequently from run to run. The remember command is only availble form v5.7.0 and later.

​
Arguments

ArgumentTypeDescription
outputstringthe variable name you will use to recall the value later.
descriptionstringA prompt describing the value you want to store.

​
Example usage

- command: remember
  output: my_variable
  description: The date value shown to the right or 'Order Date'

​
Protips

  • Use the output later with this syntax ${OUTPUT.my_variable}.
  • The remember command does not persist variables across different test runs. If you need to store values for later use in different test runs, consider using external storage solutions or environment variables.
  • For now, the remember command only supports string values. If you need to store complex data types, you may use remember multiple times for the values. This may change in a later version.

​
Gotchas

  • The remeember command is only available from v5.7.0 and later.
  • Ensure the variable name is unique to avoid overwriting existing variables.
  • The variable name is case-sensitive, so my_variable and My_Variable would be treated as different variables.

​
Notes

  • The remember command is ideal for storing values that are generated during the test run, such as timestamps, IDs, the text value of a link you might click later, or any other dynamic data.
